gps log

[lsuhe]

Ihave't tried redording a gps log but I've got a few Q
I have 2210, TT wired GPS, TT3. and Autoroute 2000. ( I don't use Autoroute formapping) its just available.
How much space does the gps log take. r.g. xkb per minute or per mile?
Once I've recorded my gps log can I view where I went on my pc using autoroute? What conversioniif any is needed to convert a gps log file into something that Autoroute can display?

Cheers

The GPS log simply records the raw output data of the GPS with (from memory) five lines of header information added.

The data works out to a good few KBytes per minute, which can make prolonged log recording impractical. For a "where I went" program, it would be better if someone wrote a program using the TomTom SDK that recorded position, speed and direction every minute or similar, then stored that data in a fairly compact format.

And it is only readable in TomTom. If you desire proper datalogging, look at the RoyaltekRBT-3000 which has a PC and PPC client app that will replay the captured log files to any GPS application inc Autoroute.
